Mathematical Model and Control Design of Micro Turbine Generation System

Abstract

In this modern era power generation seems to be a very demanding factor. New models and methods have been proposed to derive from various natural and man made resources. In such instances this paper gives a detailed report on the power generation from micro turbines. To enlist the microturbines as a prime source of energy utility restructuring, technology evolution, public environmental policy and expanding power demand are some of the most notable factors. Gas turbines plays a very important role in electric power generation. Especially they are used in the Combined cycle process power Plants. The parameters of Rowen’s model 265-MW single shaft heavy duty gas turbines which are used in dynamic studies are estimated in this paper using the operational and performance data. These data are also used to briefly explain the extraction of parameters of the used model. Gas turbine parameters are approximated using simple thermodynamics assumptions. Though micro turbine power generation seems to be an uprising and a promising source, the exact design with a perfect model is only capable of producing the highest efficiency. Thus this paper is proposed on the aspects of social awareness to elaborate a mathematical model and a control design of the Micro Turbine Power Generation System.
